Optogenetic Functional MRI [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2016 The investigation of the functional connectivity of precise neural circuits across the entire intact brain can be achieved through optogenetic functional magnetic resonance imaging (ofMRI), which is a novel technique that combines the relatively high spatial resolution of high-field fMRI with the precision of optogenetic stimulation.

Optogenetics Therapy of Human Cancers
Zhongliu Fangzhi Yanjiu, 2018 The optogenetics approach uses a combination of genetic and optical methods to control the functions in specific cells of biological tissues. Since the control of neuronal activity by irradiating channelrhodopsin-2 with blue light was reported in 2005 ...

Exploring adult hippocampal neurogenesis using optogenetics [PDF]
, 2018 In the 1980s, it was widely accepted that new neurons are continuously generated in the dentate gyrus of the mammalian hippocampus. Since its acceptance, researchers have employed various techniques and behavioral paradigms to study the proliferation ...

A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.

Optogenetics in primates: monkey see monkey look [PDF]
, 2011 Optogenetics has emerged as a powerful tool for studying the neural basis of simple behaviors in rodents and small animals. In the primate model, however, optogenetics has had limited utility because optical methods have not been able to drive behavior ...

, 2012 The use of optogenetics, the technology that combines genetic and optical methods to monitor and control the activity of specific cell populations, is now widely adopted in neuroscience. The development of optogenetic tools, such as natural photosensitive ion channels and pumps or calcium- and voltage-sensitive proteins, has been growing tremendously ...

Molecular determinants of signal transduction in tropomyosin receptor kinases
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Tropomyosin receptor kinases control critical neuronal functions, but how do the same receptors produce diverse cellular responses? This review explores the structural mechanisms behind Trk signaling diversity, focusing on allosteric modulation and ligand bias.

Remote Optogenetics Using Up/Down-Conversion Phosphors
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021 Microbial rhodopsins widely used for optogenetics are sensitive to light in the visible spectrum. As visible light is heavily scattered and absorbed by tissue, stimulating light for optogenetic control does not reach deep in the tissue irradiated from ...
